Thieves Steal $100,000 in Food, Toys for Poor

Several thieves in Orange County have stolen over $100,000 worth of toys and food that were donated to the poor, forcing the agency to scramble for Christmas. James Colgrove of the Orange County Police Department says that the robbers broke into the underground storage facility where the goods were being kept, then took an estimated 20,000 pounds of food and roughly $25,000 in toys.

The food and toys had been donated to the United Labor Agency of Orange County. Colgrove says that the goods had been collected for homeless families and the families of those that had recently lost their jobs. Several items that were donated for a raffle had also been taken.
